In Another World, All Milfs Will Be Mine-Chapter 155: [ - - ] - System Reboot

The banquet hall was so silent you could hear the blood dripping off the table on the stone floor.

Drip!

Drip!

Drip!

The sound echoed off in the room that was filled with the iron smell of blood and faeces.

The Blackfang Bandits still stood in their place behind the corpses of the nobles. The surviving men in the room were trembling violently under the tables, praying that Leo wouldn’t snap his fingers again.

But Leo wasn’t looking at them.

He was standing by the table completely still.

His eyes were unfocused, staring into empty space, and a faint grin plastered on his face.

To the outside world, he looked like a statue, until he slowly sat down on the chair.

"What is he doing?" Ryana whispered to herself, unsure as to what was happening to Leo.

On the other hand, Belladonna looked at Seraphine. the two of them exchanged glances and without a word, they moved.

They stepped in front of him, flanking him on both sides, facing outward. Seraphine’s face was a mask of cold fury, her hands crossed against her chest.

On the other side, Belladonna gripped her serrated blade.

They didn’t know what was happening to him, but they knew one thing: While he was in this trance, no one touched him.

One of the cowering nobles, a young man who had wet himself, twitched, his elbow knocking against a chair leg.

Thump.

Belladonna hissed.

Dozens of Blackfang Bandits raised their swords instantly. The metallic scrape of steel on leather filled the room. The noble fainted dead away.

The tension in the room was suffocating. A single wrong move would turn the banquet hall into a meat grinder.

But inside Leo’s head?

It was a party.

’Aiva?’ Leo thought, his mental voice trembling with relief, ’Is that you?’

[Did you miss me, master?]

A familiar, robotic-yet-feminine voice echoed in his mind.

’God, I did!’ Leo grinned, ’I missed you so much.’

[I see you managed to not die. Barely.]

’Shouldn’t you be glad I did not?’ Leo grinned.

’Do you know what I have been through?’

’Volkov sent assassins to kill me’

’I was stabbed! Here! Right there on my heart!’

[Arm! You were grazed by a knife on your arm, Master]

[It was just a scratch. Don’t be such a sissy!]

’Huh!’ Leo almost chuckled, ’You are indeed back!’

[It seems my guidance is the only thing keeping you from being minced meat,]

Aiva continued, her tone dripping with a new, distinct sarcasm.

[I leave you alone for 24 hours and you almost get turned into a shish kebab by a third-rate nobody.]

’Hey!’ Leo protested mentally, ’I didn’t actually need you. I managed to leave a trail of dead bodies even without you.’

’I was handling this fat pig even without you.’ Leo didn’t want to let Aiva steal his thunder. She was extra cocky today.

[You are nothing without me. But don’t worry, Daddy. I’m back.]

Aiva’s pleasant voice rang in his skull.

Leo blinked, "Did you just call me..."

[System Reboot Complete. Integration: 100%.]

Aiva cut him off smoothly.

[Would you like to see your new Stats, Master? Or would you prefer to stand there drooling while your harem worries about you?]

"Show me," Leo commanded, ignoring the jab, "I want to see the numbers. After 24 hours being away for your mistake. You better compensate me heavily."

He rubbed his mental hands together. This was it. The payoff.

A blue screen materialized in his vision, crisp and beautiful.

Leo stared at the screen. His grin faltered. His eye twitched.

"Level... 11?"

Leo could not help but frown.

’Why am I still only Level 11?! Are you kidding me, Aiva? Is this a joke? Is this a bug?’

’I killed so many monsters in the monster raid, completed so many quests’

’Then why am I not level 20 or higher?’

’This is bullshit! This is a scam!’

[Calm down, Host. You are embarrassing yourself.]

’I demand a refund! I want to speak to the manager! Where is that good for nothing, horny bitch?’

’She likes to play games doesn’t she?’

’Let her come. I will ruin that smug smile on her face.’

[I hope you will address the Goddess with the respect she deserves. Otherwise, nothing is stopping me from going back to a permanent sleep, and taking you along with me.]

[Besides... Look at your Strength, Master. The average man is 15. You are four times stronger than a normal man. You could crush a skull with one hand.]

[Your Stamina is 93. You will surely last longer than 2 minutes without tiring. You are a monster in bed, Master. Cheer up!]

Leo paused. There was no good that would come from arguing with Aiva.

"You... Damnit!" Leo conceded grudgingly. Nothing could be done now. It was not his fault that the system was too eager to reward him. But he was paying for it nonetheless.

That’s Bullshit! Bullshit! Bullshit!

’Even my Skills are gone as well. I don’t even have my Predator’s instincts anymore.’

Leo sighed, ’This was turning out to be a big, big let down.

’Now at least explain to me what’s all this.’

He pointed mentally to the bottom of the list.

Harem: 2 Body Count: 3

"Why is there a difference? I slept with three women. Seraphine, Belladonna, and Shadow. Why is Shadow not in the Harem count?"

[Simple]

Aiva explained, her tone becoming professorial.

[The ’Harem’ stat tracks women who have pledged their complete loyalty—heart, soul, and body to you. Seraphine and Belladonna are yours completely. They would die for you.]

[The ’Body Count’ tracks sexual conquests. Shadow slept with you because she was overwhelmed by pleasure and your command, but her loyalty is still technically with Ryana. She is a conquest, not a possession. Yet.]

Leo’s eyes narrowed. He looked past the interface at Ryana. Then he looked at Shadow, who was standing in the shadows behind her mistress, her face hidden but her body language tense.

"So I need to break Shadow properly to move her to the Harem column?" Leo smirked internally. "Challenge accepted."

"Now, show me the loot. Inventory."

The screen shifted. A grid of boxes appeared.

It was... disappointing.

[INVENTORY]

Mortal Grade Storage Pouch

Thunderbolt Card

The Whisperer’s Earring (Equipped)

Silent Shadow Cloak (New)

Crimson Fate-Binding Anklet (New)

Desire Amplification Pill (New)

"That’s it?" Leo grumbled. "It’s mostly empty! I expected a lot more. You have almost taken away all my quest rewards.]

[You have 8000 Gold, Host. That is a small fortune. You looted Caelum’s treasury and Volkov’s pockets belong to you as well. Stop being greedy.]

’I am a dragon. Greed comes with my job description.’

He focused on the new items, "Tell me what these do, Aiva."

[With pleasure, Master!]

Aiva’s voice took on a sultry saleswoman.

[ITEM: Silent Shadow Cloak]

[Grade: Rare]

[Effect: When worn in dim light or darkness, the user becomes effectively invisible to the naked eye. It also dampens all sound made by the wearer, be it footsteps, breathing, and heartbeat. Perfect for sneaking... or assassination.]

"Perfect for sneaking into Ryana’s room," Leo muttered, "Or assassination. But I wil most likely use it on Ryana."

[ITEM: Crimson Fate-Binding Anklet]

[Grade: Standard]

[Effect: A beautiful gold anklet with a crimson gem. Once placed on a target’s ankle, it binds them to the Master. The wearer cannot move more than 1 mile from the Master without suffering intense, crippling pain. It also establishes a one-way telepathic link, allowing the Master to whisper commands directly into the wearer’s mind.]

Leo paused. He touched his chin, his physical hand moving slightly, causing Ryana to flinch.

He looked at Ryana. He thought about Aliana.

"This," Leo thought, a dark thrill running through him, "Is a toy for a bad girl. A very bad girl. I know exactly who needs a leash."

[ITEM: Desire Amplification Pill]

[Grade: Basic]

[Effect: A pill made of concentrated aphrodisiac herbs and dragon essence. When consumed, it increases the target’s libido by 50%. It lowers inhibitions and breaks mental resistance to pleasure.]

[Warning: Effects are permanent until satisfied thoroughly.]

"Dangerous," Leo grinned. "I like it."

He closed the inventory. His eyes drifted to the final tab on the main menu. The one that was glowing with a golden light.

[Shop (New)]

"Finally," Leo breathed. "The Pay-to-Win feature."

He rubbed his hands together. The dopey grin vanished, replaced by a look of intense, greedy anticipation.

"Show me what I can buy, Aiva. I have 8000 gold burning a hole in my pocket. I want weapons. I want skills. I want power."

[Opening System Shop...]

Aiva chimed.

[Warning: The goods are expensive, Master. Try not to bargain when you see the prices.]
